Kim Sơn
The village, the hands, and the field — everything an Artera piece is made of.
Seven generations, one craft.
Since 1829, where the Day River meets the sea. 47 artisan families, led by Ms. Thuy and Ms. Lien — 35+ years at the loom each, keeping alive the techniques mass production left behind.
Hundreds of techniques two pairs of hands.
Ms. Thuy and Ms. Lien learned beside their mothers as young girls — 35 years at the loom each. Today they lead a collective of twelve, each artisan mastering the intricate weaves that factories abandoned for speed. The most advanced take years to learn; you can read them in the tightness of every strand.

Hundreds of techniques; the finest take years to learn. Every piece is signed before it ships — quality you can see from across the room.
Grown a short walk from the loom.
In Kim Sơn, sustainability isn't a marketing line — it's how the village has worked for nearly 200 years. The same families who weave the fiber also grow and harvest it.
Seagrass, hyacinth, rattan — nothing else in the weave.
No kilns, no dyes, no plastic. The color is the fiber's own.
Re-styled, repaired, passed on — and compostable at the end of a long life.
